Help! Can't get rid of zombies!

OK, I was as excited as the next person to have zombies in the game. However, my zombies have gotten out of control! They eat everything in my garden, they respawn on my lot every 5 seconds, they appear during all moon phases, night or day, and I am sick to death of them! Here are the things I've tried so far that haven't worked:

1. testingcheatsenabled true - population control (zombies leave the lot, but then respawn seconds later)

2. peashooter (doesn't shoot automatically, so I have to constantly be checking my lot when my sims aren't home so I can set the peashooter to "attack zombie")

I'm seriously at my wits' end and this is ruining my game experience. Gardening used to be one of the more fun aspects of the game for me, but everything keeps getting destroyed. I really wish EA would make a patch to allow us to turn off zombies once-and-for-all as we already can with the other supernaturals.

I don't think the town is the problem. I'm living in plum and I am barely getting any on a full moon. It's getting to the point where I think I might need to start my own zombie apocalypse. If only my witch would level up faster...

There's a couple of other threads you should read they have the answers and ones that work. I dont feel like repeating myself otherwise I'd be of more help :? Just look for threads that say zombie there's prolly 100 by now

So I am not the only one not wanting Zombies to take over. As much as I would love to have the game because of the witches/warlocks and fairies, I haven't bought it simply because I do not want zombies in every single game I have. I want them when I want them. I am going to look through the threads to see if there really is a solution to get rid of them before I buy the game.

I know I could put the plants inside, but I really liked having the gardens outside. I don't feel like I should have to "cheat" the zombies instead of just getting rid of them.

Also, I should mention that I don't have any mods or anything that could be messing w/ the game.

Showtime seems to be a great/ fun combo with Supernatural, Use it to make a Genie and 'Banish' them...(Though I have no idea what it does aside from removing them from the property...
Never used it before... Since I have no idea entirely what it does. Saving using it for a sim I don't like particularly.)

Or just use the Fence option in the Build Mode, As long as you lock it & surround your garden with it-- naturally =P, it will/ does work.

Twallan's Master Controller runs out the homeless population and the homeless population is what comprises most of the zombies. I rarely see a zombie anymore. I might get 1 zombie on full moon, but I just either delete them or reset them.

i'm still testing out ways to keep the zombies from my garden (other than simply moving the garden inside). i actually find the zombies amusing when they're not destroying my plants (then they're just annoying! lol) so i'm not trying to get rid of them. i put a fence around my garden and did not add a gate. instead i put a door that will let the sim into the garden as my garden is against the side of my house. i'm still waiting for the next full moon to see if it will work or not. if not, i'm going to build a "greenhouse" type building and just lock the door lol. good luck with your game!

What I do is cover the entire lot in a flooring, then custom color it with that grass texture in the miscellaneous section. After that, I shift-click on the mailbox, and get rid of the zombies with the supernatural population control. The flooring keeps them from coming back
